The PL experience is quite a significant factor like, I mean we know what Maddison can do. I think Paqueta would do brilliantly over here FWIW, but it does seem like there's a CL club in for him, which one I'm not sure. Could be Spurs or City.

He looked much sexier than Madison, you can understand there will be some disappointment.

I think it was reported that he didn't want to come here or go to Arsenal.

They don't even know what a Premier league midfielder looks like if they think starting Colback is a good idea.

This is probably the last window Leicester will be able to maximise his fee. At a push they might be able to get a similar fee in January, but every month less on his contract and they risk losing quite a few million.

Maddison is more exciting. Goal scoring forwards/midfielders are the hardest players to buy. I'm still not sure how we managed to secure Wilson with the previous lot in charge.

Well that will cheer them up on those cold winter nights watching Spurs play champions league.

The new title does add a bit of extra titilation for sure. It's like, oooh I wonder what's going on in here!

It's the sort of signing that shoots into the top 6 category tbh. That's how big it is.

The Leicester fans are going to give you a fan's perspective, but if Maddison wants the move, what they think doesn't really matter.

It's a weird one, because I don't think his type of player was a priority. I'm thinking it's more a case of just buying the best players if and when they become available. A lot of us wanted to sign Paqueta for the same reason.

It's an unnecessary dig at us really, but what we've come to expect. It must really boil his piss that Newcastle might be an attractive proposition to players like Maddison.

It's nice that people are sitting up and taking notice, but it's ludicrous to be talking about us as title contenders this season.

Absolutely. No one else is jumping in and offering more.

Well worth it just to get Brendan fuming.

Those three were the set piece dream line up. Solano with the right foot, Robert with the left, and Shearer when you needed an exocet missile. Mind Robert could give them a good wallop as well.

I expect a hard game, they might even push us back at times, but we are well drilled in defending. We might struggle to score goals a bit, but if we keep a clean sheet we'll win. Maxi and Wilson will do some damage.

I think £50m will do it. I doubt we'll go higher than that.

He did finish it by saying he might just be angling for a new contract. Miserable twat.

They seem to think they will overrun us with their attacking verve and high energy pressing. All that with Jack Colback in their midfield.

"Colback should start - point to prove"

That's because we will have a price we will pay and stick to that. I don't know, maybe he's really bad at this stuff, but we hired Ashworth because he's meant to be one of the best in the country. I just think he's probably more qualified than you or me.

Better than any of us, that's for sure.

Yep. Regardless of whether we sign Maddison, Leicester will inevitably settle back into their natural position which is mid-lower table traditionally. Players know this, and that's why there is always a chance you can poach their best ones. Not everyone is Vardy who knows other clubs won't set the team up around him.
